Anacortes Word Waves 2012

ANACORTES

My compass has guided
this small boat
here

To an island city
a habitat for a dying breed
of sailor

The whispers of our heritage
like a marina of memories
quietly set adrift and forgotten

Mist and drizzle
moss on the forests
orcas under the waves

Make this town
what it is

Julia Soes
